Hi Stefan, Have you looked at https://www.tug.org/store/lucida/type1.html It includes links to the installation instructions https://www.tug.org/store/lucida/README-type1.txt to the support files for the fonts (tfm et al, including the map file) https://ctan.org/pkg/lucida https://ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/psfonts/bh/lucida (the first link is the ready-to-install package, organised according to the TeX Directory Structure, and the second link the files it's based on), and to the LaTeX package lucidabr https://www.ctan.org/pkg/lucidabr https://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/psnfssx/lucidabr (same). Hope this works, Bruno Voisin
